School staffers in Springfield confirmed the development Tuesday. Repeated calls to and messages left with parent company Premier Education Group, of New Haven, Connecticut, went unanswered.

The building was occupied Tuesday.

Branford Hall is the latest in a series of campus closings by Premier across Massachusetts.

The Springfield campus offers health care and technical training in vocations like culinary arts, professional medical assistant and heating, ventilation and air conditioning technician.

Premier Education Group also owns Salter College and Salter Schools. An outgoing message at the Salter College location in Chicopee said that the facility was already closed and had been consolidated with Branford Hall's Springfield campus.

Premier purchased the Chicopee location, formerly occupied by the Gold Club strip club, in 2009 for $1.3 million. The property, at 645 Shawnigan Drive and within sight of the Massachusetts Turnpike, is for sale for $1.8 million.

The Springfield building is owned by the same entity, Shawnigan Drive LLC, listed as the owner of the Chicopee property, according to tax records in the two cities.

Another Premier Education Group subsidiary, Salter School, closed its Fall River, Tewksbury, New Bedford and Cambridge locations in 2017, leaving only one remaining location in Malden.

Salter College's location in West Boylston is accepting new students, according to staffers there.

There are no other Branford Hall locations in Massachusetts. There are locations in Albany, Amityvill and Bohemia in New York; in Windsor and Southington, Connecticut; and in Hamilton, Jersey City and Parsippany, New Jersey.

In 2016, the Massachusetts Division of Professional Licensure took disciplinary action against Premier Education Group LP, doing business as The Salter School. That discipline included a settlement of $150,000 to resolve allegations that the school engaged in misleading actions and employed unapproved instructors at its Massachusetts locations.

The state attorney general's office, which created new regulations in 2014 that govern for-profit schools, has consumer advice for students. The regulations require for-profit schools to provide certain disclosures to prospective students 72 hours in advance of enrollment.

Those disclosures include:

The cost of a program

The program's graduation rate

The percentage of students who are not paying their loans

Regulations also prohibit for-profit schools from contacting prospective students, either by phone or via text messaging, in excess of two times in each seven-day period.

The attorney general's office has tips for prospective students dealing with college recruiters and an advisory about for-profit schools, and encourages students to call the office at 888-830-6277 if they are victims of excessive recruitment calls.
